Because it doesn't make a lick of sense to have him being a mere mortal. He ain't even a demi-god anymore....hes now a guy using greek weapons and is a street leveler now...that just doesn't seem right for this character at all.
Character » Hercules appears in 1328 issues.
Yes, Marvel, re-power Hercules already!
It's not interesting to see Hercules, the hero whose very name is synonymous with "Strength", as a street-level hero. If we wanted that, we'd read Batman, Daredevil or Spider-Man. We want the "God of Strength" to live up to the title.
We like Hercules for the sum total of his character which includes his personality, his history and his powers! We weren't secretly wanting Hercules to lose his powers and we're not happy he did. Batman fans don't want to see him pushing planets, knocking over buildings, breaking steel chains and such. They want to see him fighting as a highly trained and skilled normal man. We Hercules fans don't want to see him fighting the Hobgoblin and depending on agility/acrobatics. We want to see him uprooting buildings, pulling islands and shattering mountains with his fists.
This de-powered farce has gone on to long now (It's actually quite ridiculous how long it's went on).
Give Hercules' powers back to him. Let 'Herc' be "HERCULES" again!
It might have been an interesting concept if he was a DEMI-GOD(because then he would still have his strength and such just at a lower standard), but being a mere mortal?....NO. Bring him back to full power!Yes, Marvel, re-power Hercules already!

Oh I am patient and can wait...but its just the fact that Hercules is a mere mortal and a street leveler character now is what bothers me and what I can't stand.
shy did marvel depower him again? i hope the re-power him in MN
They should give him back his own series. Put him back in the Avengers. Revive the Champions, too. Marvel's all about giving characters multiple series. The truth is, there can never be too many books featuring Marvel's Hercules on the stands. I say, let's bring back Marvel Team-Up, with Hercules as the permanent star. Who doesn't want to see Hercules tooling about the Marvel Universe with it's greatest characters sharing in his adventures? Make it happen, and I'll Make Mine Marvel!...... Mostly.
Yes again....why they keep doing so, haven't a clue.@Wolfrazer said:

Hercules as the permanent star of a new "Marvel Team-Up" series?!? That's a great idea!!!! (Why didn't I think of that?!?)
I love it! There are endless possibilities to this idea! I absolutely love it!
